Let's talk about cognitive psychology a little. Specifically, where it came from and why.


A couple things that didn't make the cut:
- Hippocampus place cells
- Neisser's book on cognitive psychology


For more human factors aka applied cognitive aka engineering psychology aka ergonomics aka other things I'm probably forgetting, check out "The Design of Everyday Things" by Donald Norman.


And I'm still learning the newer version of Premiere. The SPORTS title cards weren't what I was going for, but when the first N+1 iterations break the render, you go with what works. Likewise, the lighting test did me dirty, so there were some attempts to fix things in post. So it goes.
